jwhouk:
No poll because I couldn't think of one.

DSL:
People like to talk about the "Butts Disease," but Marten has "but" disease. "But this might happen," "But that might happen," but but but. Claire is trying to get him off his but.

shanejayell:
It's been so long since any of Matren's background friends have appeared....  :-o

Pogopotamus:
I don't know. The whole Marten / Claire thing is kind of a snooze at this point. One of the interesting things about QC is the unexpected directions things might go in any scenario, but I don't see that happening in this case. Jeph has got himself into a box with this relationship. It's just overly precious and cutesy. Marten is an intelligent, college educated, full grown man content to putter away at menial, gig like jobs forever. It's past being cool or amusing it's just pathetic at this point. Per the current comic Marten should hardly be surprised even his friends think of him as a loser.  It would be interesting to see Jeph put Marten in a whole different direction but I doubt that's going to happen. 

cybersmurf:
Isn't that what chis current arc is about, kinda? Pushing Marten forward?

I don't know how it is in the US, but where I live you have to tell your employer if you're married. So, when Tai and Dora get married, I see a certain chance of Tai "getting caught" not being a student anymore, and having to look for another job. With being terminated as collateral damage - so Marten would be forced to do something else anyway. Maybe JJ is trying to ease that transition a bit this time.
